From the Archives: (Some of) The Women Who Wrote Hitchcock

Hitchcock gets a lot of credit for his mystery and suspense films, rightfully so, but sometimes that credit goes as far as erasing the writers who came up with the mysteries, twists, dark jokes, th…

“Grant as Thornhill is one of the most underrated comedic performances of the 20th century. Every single character he meets in this film is very clearly working to screw him over, yet he remains surprised at every turn” #CaryGrant #Hitchcock #NorthbyNorthwest www.theguardian.com/culture/2025...

North by Northwest: Hitchcock’s funniest, most ambitious film

Every scene in Cary Grant’s mistaken identity caper is pure absurdity – including that famous cornfield chase. You can’t look away

Könnte sein, dass #StevenSpielberg sich für die "Car Factory Scene" (siehe Video ab 02m:00s) von #Hitchcock​s in "Der unsichtbare Dritte" leider unrealisierten Szene inspirieren ließ, oder? 🤔

Mr. und Mrs. Hitchcock - Die ganze Doku | ARTE

Vom Film bis zum Privatleben haben sie alles geteilt: Alfred Hitchcock und Alma Reville. Die Liebesgeschichte der beiden ist untrennbar mit ihrem gemeinsamen Werk verbunden. Alma ist Mutter von Hitchcocks Tochter, seine Mitarbeiterin und Seelenverwandte. Die Hitchcock-Biografie zeigt, dass das Werk des Filmemachers in Wirklichkeit vierhändig geschrieben worden ist.

I had never heard of Daphne de Maurier until I read an article from Stephen King about her. This collection of short stories blew me away. Very well written, atmospheric and original!

tonight's first #halloween #horror #movie was The Birds

BLUF: WTF

1. There are three adult women in this movie and all of them act deeply predatory towards Mitch

2. #Hitchcock was British and famously misogynistic (including towards Hedren specifically)

Conclusion: "the birds" are women...?

I have no idea why they put Bodega Bay, which has New England architecture, a robust lobster fishing industry and even robuster Maine accents in northern California.

Also the gasoline explosion scene with the seagulls watching it in delight.

There's a couple good moments. The birds gathering behind Melanie (though I feel like that should have been one shot showing both her and the gathering threat) and Mitch walking slowing through birds.

But overall this feels like a cult classic, not a Hitchcock movie.
